Why in June is it summer in the southern hemisphere and winter in the northern hemisphere?
sure
Why are climates located farther from the equator cooler than those to the equator?
Its is cooler because of earths tilt the sun's ultraviolet rays hit most directly on the equator so it is hotter by the equator so the farther from the equator the cooler.
What kind of stars are always above the horizon?
That depends where you are on the earth.Seen from the USA, or from anywhere in the mid-latitudes of the northern Hemisphere,Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, (big and little dippers), Cassiopeia, and Draco are always up.The farther north you are, the larger this region is.From the southern Hemisphere, a whole different set of objects (with which I'm totally unfamiliar) is always in the sky. The farther south you are, the larger this region is.Seen from the equator, everything in the sky sets below the horizon every day.
Information on countries near the equator?
The countries near the equator are hotter the the countries farther from the equator
Why are climates located farther from the equator cooler than those closer to the equator?
Its is cooler because of earths tilt the sun's ultraviolet rays hit most directly on the equator so it is hotter by the equator so the farther from the equator the cooler.
Why does the heat equator move farther into the Northern Hemisphere in July than it moves into the Southern Hemisphere in January?
There is more land surface in the Northern Hemisphere and land has a lower specific heat than water therefore warming faster than the vast oceans of the Southern Hemisphere.
Is the north hemisphere farther than the south hemisphere?
The Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere meet each other along the Equator, so they are the same distance.
Are penguin in the North Pole?
All species of penguin are native to the Southern Hemisphere. The Galapagos penguin lives in the vicinity of the equator and so, technically, a few miles into the northern hemisphere, but no penguins live any farther north than that.
What changes occur to gravity as you go further South in the Southern Hemisphere?
As you move from a pole toward the Equator the Earth's spin will act against the force of gravity, so that the net gravity will fell less as you approach the Equator. As you move away from the equator towards a pole (as in moving south, when in southern hemisphere), the spin effect becomes less, so the feel of gravity will increase. The amount of change is slight. Also, the equator is a little farther away from the center of mass than the pole, making the gravitational pull at the equator a little less, as well.
Why in June is it summer in the southern hemisphere and winter in the northern hemisphere?
sure
Why does winter have to be the shortest day of the year?
During winter in the Northern Hemisphere, the earth is tilted by its axis so the Northern Hemisphere is away from the sun and the Southern Hemisphere is closer to the sun. During winter in the Southern Hemisphere, the earth axis is tilted the other way, so that the Northern Hemisphere is closer to the sun and the Southern Hemisphere is farther away.
Are the sun rays stronger in Southern hemisphere than northern?
The earth is closer to the Sun in the southern hemisphere when it is summer, but during summer in the northern hemisphere the earth is farther away by many millions of kilometres . Although this will change gradually and in 13,000 years the opposite will be true .
What season is it at the equator if it is summer in the northern hemisphere?
the answer to that question would be...summer. itis summer in the equator all the time because , the equator is farther away from the arctic circle than any other country or island or any thing!
Why is Vermont colder in the winter?
Colder compared to what? It is colder in the winter than in the summer because the northern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun in the winter. It is colder in Vermont compared to southern states because it is farther from the equator, and therefore receives lesss heat from the sun
Which city is farther from the equator Trenton New Jersey or Montpelier Vermont?
Montpelier is farther from the equator.
In Late June which area of the world would have the least amount of daylight hours?
Antarctica, where there would be zero hours of daylight. Anyplace south of the equator will have less than 12 hours of sunlight, and the farther south, the less daylight you will have in late June. June 21 is the Summer Solstice in the northern hemisphere, and the winter solstice in the southern hemisphere.
Why does winter start in December for Australia?
Because in the southern Hemisphere the seasons are flip flopped our summer is their winter. Our spring is their fall and vice versa. It has to do with the way the sun hits the earth. When the Northern Hemisphere has the sun in the summer the southern Hemisphere is farther from the sun making it colder.
